<p>Is it possible to read <a href="https://forge.rust-lang.org/">https://forge.rust-lang.org/</a> to know when current nightly (1.51) will be promoted to beta? Is it just the same date when current beta (1.50) is promoted to release?</p>

<p>Hm, well, I guess it depends on what you want - when that happens, we promote the last commit to have 1.51.</p>

<p>The point I want to know is when installing a beta with rustup will give me 1.51 instead of 1.50. (My actual goal here is to put a reminder on my calendar to add beta testing to a crate that uses const generics.)</p>

<p>Then, yes, roughly tuesday/wednesday is the right day.</p>

<p>The failure mode here if I'm off by a day isn't really anything, but also I'm impatient :-)</p>

<p>I’ve looked at <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/beta/src/version">https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/beta/src/version</a> a couple times in the past to check if a given branch had happened yet</p>
